Many good points here. I would just like to reiterate one; imo everyone should have at least one toon that they just keep leveling....
I have 8 capped builds at different levels, for different purposes, (Anor invasions, Anor coop, Blightttown coop, 120 PvP etc.etc.). But I have 2 toons that I just keep leveling.
My first guy, who was of course a mess of a build because I never played Demon Souls, (I'm on xbox), and I played through completely blind, (no wiki, no youtube, no advice at all), so every time I found a new weapon or spell that seemed like it might be cool I raised stats needed to use it. Well, months later after I know what I am doing, I don't want to abandon him, so up and up he goes, lol. He is into NG+7 now I think, and at level 306. I still get invaded of course, but surprisingly I learned that I can still actually invade! My last two run throughs I have left the Burg open, and found that there is some serious high level PvP there.
And then there is my dragon. I have no plans to stop leveling him up....and he needs it, lol. I have run through the game much faster with him so he is also into NG+6 or 7 I think, but being naked makes him very vulnerable, He needs every stat he can get.
He is currently at level 189 and was just 2 shotted by the Capra Demon in the lower burg. I don't remember the last time I lost to him.
Point is that high levels can still be fun, and are still quite active, don't abandon the caps altogether, but have a high level toon or two as well.
